Control D
Your IT team fields constant requests about blocked websites, policy exceptions, and device configurations. Let your AI agent handle them by tapping directly into Control D's DNS management API. Profile updates, rule changes, and analytics queries happen mid-conversation, freeing your network admins for strategic work.
From device provisioning to real-time analytics, your AI agent orchestrates Control D's full DNS management stack during live customer and employee interactions.
Control D
See how IT teams use AI agents to manage DNS policies, respond to access requests, and pull network intelligence without touching the Control D dashboard.
A sales rep messages the internal help bot: 'I need access to competitor-research.com for a pitch tomorrow.' Your AI Agent checks their device profile in Control D, creates a custom bypass rule for that domain, and confirms the unblock. The rep accesses the site immediately. IT reviews the exception log at their convenience instead of handling an urgent ticket.
A department head asks 'What threats did our network block this month?' Your AI Agent queries the analytics summary endpoint for their team's profile, retrieves blocked malware domains, phishing attempts, and top flagged services, then formats a digestible report. The manager gets actionable intelligence in seconds. No waiting for the IT team to pull a manual report.
A new hire working remotely needs DNS protection on their laptop. Your AI Agent provisions the device in Control D, assigns the company's standard filtering profile, and sends the employee their unique DNS resolver settings with setup instructions. The device is protected within minutes of the conversation. IT handles zero manual steps for routine provisioning.

FAQs
The agent calls Control D's Custom Rules API endpoint. When someone requests a domain block or bypass, the agent collects the hostname and target profile, then submits the rule via the API. Rules take effect immediately since Control D applies them at the DNS resolver level. The agent can create rules in specific folders for organizational clarity.
Yes. The agent accesses all profiles under your Control D account via the List Profiles endpoint. It can retrieve, modify, or create profiles for different departments. If you use the organization feature with sub-orgs, the agent supports the X-Force-Org-Id header to manage child organizations too.
You generate an API token from your Control D dashboard under API settings. The token provides access to all endpoints you want the agent to use, including profiles, devices, rules, and analytics. You can restrict the token to specific IPs for additional security. Tars never sees your Control D login credentials.
No. Tars queries Control D's analytics endpoints in real-time during conversations. DNS logs, query counts, and blocked domain data are fetched live and used only to answer the current request. Tars does not maintain a copy of your network traffic data or DNS resolution history.
Yes. Control D supports schedule objects within profiles, and the agent can create or modify schedules using the Schedules API. For example, you could ask the agent to block social media from 9 AM to 5 PM on weekdays. The agent creates the schedule with the correct timezone and recurrence pattern.
You control this through your agent's configuration. Set guardrails that prevent bypassing malware or phishing filters, require manager approval for security-sensitive changes, or allow unrestricted modifications. The agent respects whatever policy boundaries you define before executing any rule changes in Control D.
The dashboard requires IT staff to log in, navigate profiles, and apply changes manually. With Tars, employees request changes in natural language via chat, and the agent handles the API calls. This removes IT as a bottleneck for routine requests like site unblocks or device provisioning, while keeping full audit trails.
Yes. The agent accesses the Top Domains and Top Services analytics endpoints, filtered by profile and date range. It can tell you which websites are most visited, which services consume the most queries, and which categories are most frequently blocked. All data is fetched live from Control D's analytics storage regions.
Don't limit your AI Agent to basic conversations. Watch how to configure and add powerful tools making your agent smarter and more functional.
